Colorado 1st Time Buyer

[Wade Megan]

Hey folks! Absolute ROOKIE real estate investor here. I wanted to hopefully get some guidance from the BiggerPockets community. My goal, like many others is to build my wealth through real estate investing. Here are some facts: my wife and I are moving to Colorado in 6-8 months. Our budget is $65,00 - $300,000. No kids. Looking for a moderately comfortable 1ish year home or multi-family property (willing to grind it out for a year or so in something below our means). Given that information what would be your next 3 or 4 steps to building serious long term wealth through real estate? 

I will take anything I can get - book recommendations, real estate agents, locations to consider, what not to do, any useful tips on loans etc.

Thank you in advance for any information you can offer, I promise to pay it forward once I can find success in real estate investing. I would be extremely grateful if you included in your response a sentence or two bragging about your accomplishments in real estate. I want to know that I am getting information from somebody who has found at least moderate success in real estate. Thanks again for the help. Stay safe!
